Mosaic Artist

 

A visit to Ravenna, Italy in 1992 changed my life. Standing in front of the world’s greatest Byzantine mosaic interior of the Basilica of San Vitale I knew I had to master the art and techniques of these anonymous great masters.

Explorations of the Roman sites of Britain, Italy, France, Spain and Greece combined with a fascination of architecture and pagan archetypes continues to feed my passion inspiring a whole series of geometric, literature and nature based mosaics.

Working from my studio looking out across the Wolds and North York Moors, I am passionately driven to achieve a balance between creating a great initial design with the physical creation and arrangement of tesserae that flow harmoniously throughout the work.

Each mosaic is produced with hand-cut double fired French porcelain, which has an impervious matt surface, very similar to the natural stone colours of Roman mosaics, with the additional highlight of vibrant vitreous, sicis or smalti glass and mirrors providing a contemporary twist. 

I hope you enjoy them as much I did in their making.
